For The Love Of

For The Love Of When it was possibble, we invited guest speakers from those non-profits to share their message and mission.

Mission Statement: For The Love Of's mission is to provide support for the underserved, marginalized, and vulnerable people of the community in and around New Orleans via Free Pantries, Performing Arts, and Community Outreach. About Us: For The Love Of is a small New Orleans nonprofit and production company with a mission to help local and national communities that are too often marginalized, unhe

ard, and/or discriminated against. Prior to Covid-19 and quarantine, we fulfilled our mission by producing LIVE shows featuring local comedians, poets, storytellers, musicians, and drag & burlesque performers while dedicating the shows and donating monies collected to local/national non-profits. Throughout the years, we have raised money for and awareness of non-profits such as STAR – Sexual Trauma Awareness & Response, LIFT Louisiana, and the LGBT Community center, to name a few. However, due to Covid 19 and not being able to produce live shows we’ve had the opportunity to reflect and grow. In 2020, we moved our fundrasing events to the internet! These virtual shows allowed us to cast performers from all over the country, run our campaigns for a week, and broadcast all over the country and world. Our two events (one for Women With A Vision, Inc and one for House Of Tulip) raised over a $1000 combined. Inspired by New Orleans Community Fridges, FTLO has started a Personal Hygeine Pop-up Pantry located on Marais & Annette, in the 7th Ward. In 2020, we also had our first Thanksgiving Plate Give-Away. In 2021, we provided hurricane relief for the 7th Ward, GNO area, and beyond by collecting and distributing physical donations, providing charging stations, and cooking for our neighbors and community fridges. To learn more about FTLO, the performers who dedicate their time and art to our shows, and the amazing organizations we work with, please LIKE us on Facebook: For The Love Of () or Instagram: for.the.love.of.ftlo
